Seasonal Flowers

In February I saw plum blossoms starting to bloom even at nearby shrines. I feel that spring is gradually approaching.

Idiom Kotowaza

Prune your plum trees, but not your cherry trees.There is such a saying in Japan.

Cherry blossoms become more rot from the cut branches, but plum means that it is better to have more branches since branches will increase too much.Cherry blossoms, plum blossoms are really beautiful and relief.

But I can not eat Umeboshi picked plum.
